(3) functional configuration of signal conditioning package
Next, will be with reference to the function of figure 3 explanations according to the control module of the signal conditioning package 100 of present embodiment.Fig. 3 is the block diagram that illustrates according to the functional configuration of the control module (CPU 104) of the signal conditioning package 100 of present embodiment.
As shown in Figure 3, the control module of signal conditioning package 100 comprises detecting unit 110, performance element 111, indicative control unit 112 etc.Display frame 10 shown in Figure 3 has the function of the contact panel that is used as above-mentioned input equipment 105 and the function that is used as the LCD of display device 103.
Detecting unit 110 has the function of detecting operation body 201 with respect to the angle of the reference coordinate axle in the display frame 10.Reference coordinate axle in the display frame 10 can be configured to and make that predetermined direction is that y axle and the direction vertical with the y axle are the x axle, perhaps can be configured to make that the twelve-hour direction is 0 degree.Perhaps, the reference coordinate axle can be configured to and make that the vertical direction of shell of signal conditioning package 100 is that the horizontal direction of y axle and its shell is the x axle.
The detection of the angle of 110 pairs of operating bodies 201 of detecting unit is described below with reference to Fig. 4.As shown in Figure 4, determine that the threshold value of electric capacity variable of the static contact panel at operating body 201 contact static contact panel places is T1, determine that operating body 201 is T2 near the threshold value of the electric capacity variable of the static contact panel at static contact panel place.For example, shown in the key diagram 250 of Fig. 4, when operating body 201 contacted with the static contact panel, the electric capacity variable in the contact portion 251 became and is equal to or greater than threshold value T1.On the other hand, shown in key diagram 252,, become near the electric capacity variable in the part 252 and to be equal to or greater than threshold value T2 when operating body 201 during near the static contact panel.
In fact, operating body 201 is not parallel with the plane of static contact panel usually, but to plane inclination.Therefore, shown in key diagram 253, be formed on around the contact portion of operating body 201 near part.Therefore, the zone 254 that is equal to or greater than threshold value T1 by the detected variable of the electrostatic transducer of static contact panel is surrounded by the zone 255 that variable is equal to or greater than threshold value T2.In this case, threshold value T1 is greater than threshold value T2.
The detected unit 110 of weighted mean coordinate that variable is equal to or greater than the coordinate of threshold value T1 is defined as the center of gravity TC1 of threshold value T1.In addition, the variable detected unit 110 of weighted mean coordinate that is equal to or greater than the coordinate of threshold value T2 is defined as the center of gravity TC2 of threshold value T2.
Detecting unit 110 judges whether size from the center of gravity TC1 of threshold value T1 to the vector of the center of gravity TC2 of threshold value T2 (two point distance) is equal to or greater than certain size.When the size of vector is equal to or greater than certain size, be confirmed as contacting with the static contact panel as the operating body 201 of the slender shape of finger.In addition, Xiang Liang direction is confirmed as the direction of operating body 201 contact static contact panels.Therefore, detecting unit 110 angle that can tilt with respect to the reference coordinate axle in the display frame 10 angle of coming detecting operation body 201 by the direction of calculating the vector from TC1 to TC2.
For example, when the reference coordinate axle that is defined as by center of gravity TC1 and the coordinate axis parallel in the display frame with the vertical direction of the shell of signal conditioning package 100, if the angle of operating body 201 with respect to the axial right bank predetermined angular of reference coordinate (for example, 15 spend or more degree to the right), determine that then operating body 201 is thumbs of the right hand.On the other hand, when operating body 201 during, determine that then operating body 201 is thumbs of left hand with respect to the axial left bank predetermined angular of reference coordinate (for example, 15 degree or more degree) left.By this way, detecting unit 110 detecting operation bodies 201 are with respect to the angle of the reference axis in the display frame 10, and will offer performance element 111 about the information of detected angle.
Refer again to Fig. 3.Performance element 111 has according to detecting unit 110 provides the angle of the operating body 201 that comes to carry out the function of predetermined process.The predetermined process of being carried out by performance element 111 refers to a plurality of processing of being carried out by signal conditioning package 100.Performance element 111 is carried out one of a plurality of processing according to the angle of operating body 201.A plurality of processing of being carried out by performance element 111 can be the processing of same level, perhaps can be that high-level processing and low level are handled.In addition, performance element 111 has the function that makes the indicative control unit of describing later 112 show predetermined demonstration in display frame 10.
Indicative control unit 112 comes to show a plurality of display layers by a plurality of display layers that superpose in display frame 10.One of a plurality of display layers that indicative control unit 112 will show in display frame are presented in the prospect.For example, above-mentioned performance element 111 can be chosen in one of a plurality of display layers that show in the display frame 10 according to the angle of detecting unit 110 detected operating bodies 201.In this case, indicative control unit 112 will be presented in the prospect of display frame 10 by performance element 111 selected display layers.
In addition, indicative control unit 112 can come to show a plurality of display layers by a plurality of display layers that superpose pellucidly in display frame 10.In this case, performance element 111 can be chosen in one of a plurality of display layers that show in the display frame 10 according to the angle of detecting unit 110 detected operating bodies 201.Therefore, indicative control unit 112 shows by performance element 111 selected display layers by the opacity that increases by performance element 111 selected display layers.
(4) the demonstration example of signal conditioning package
The function of the control module of signal conditioning package 100 has been described above.Next, will be with reference to the demonstration example of the display frame 10 of figure 5 to 7 descriptive information treating apparatus 100.Fig. 5 is the key diagram that illustrates the demonstration example of display frame 10.Shown in the illustrative display frame 300 of Fig. 5, two types display layer (picture frame layer) is present in the display frame 10 jointly, and in them each is presented on the picture with translucent pattern.
